NO PICTURES, just glad to be back alive.
The very first day off the trip we got into a bad accident.
(Per the CHP officer, he thought it would be safe for
us to continue on our trip, since the damaged looked
cosmetic)
We tried to continue and the next day we got
stuck on a two land road in the boomies up in a mountain cliff.
Thanks to a wonderful young man who was stationed
at a nearby marine base, who
drove my husband to get help as I waited with 3 dogs.
(car phone would not work and this place isn't even on a map)
An hour later we were able to drive the M.H. to a nearby
repair shop and because it was running
they could not figure out what was wrong.
We tried driving home again, and sure enough
the engine died again. We stayed overnight
in a motel with 3 dogs while my husband again got
the M.H. to the same small local repair shop.
Same thing, Could not tell us what was wrong since when
the M.H. was running perfect again.
Back track to a different route, so we could drive on a 4 lane road instead of a two lane. That way if we stalled their would be
a lane for cars to pass us instead of hitting us.
Made it almost home, and now our turn signals are not working,
the freezer door keeps opening and than the
engine stalls up the (STEEP) grapevine, right off a busy
Truck lane.
A stream of BIG RIGS kept passing us, and
it was HOT and I was terrified that one of the BIG RIGS would
hit us.
($148.00) Tow truck towed us over the Grape Vine and took us
to a parking lot. We were than able to drive the M.H.
home in the early evening.
If we did not have the dogs, it would have been a lot less
scary.
Tomarrow we are taking the M.H. to a repair shop and
will leave it their. I will probably go to work for 3 days, than
I think just Mike and I will go on a short vacation and
let my Aunt housesit and watch the dogs.
P.S. Rocky was sick and I also lost my favorite watch too. : (

It seems like everything went form bad to worse. 
The good thing is you weren't hurt. I hope Rocky is ok! What's wrong? I'm sorry your fun vacation was ruined
Something like that happens every time we try to go.....I could write 10 pages worth...last year on our way to Yellowstone the truck decided to be evil and we had to spend all day in some stupid city in Idaho.
